Hotel ibis budget Nice Aéroport Promenade des Anglais (Nice, France)

Many travellers sang the praises of the pleasant, professional and helpful employees, many of whom were multilingual. Most diners liked the simple but filling and affordable continental breakfast buffet. Diners often said lunch and dinner at a neighbouring partner hotel were good too.

Air passengers using Nice Cote d'Azur Airport welcomed this hotel's location as it put them within easy walking distance of Terminal 1 and just steps from a free shuttle bus service linking to Terminal 2. The proximity of the A8 motorway was a bonus for drivers, enabling easy access to city attractions, sports venues, ferry terminals and shopping centres. It also appealed to guests that they were within moderate walking distance of Mediterranean beaches. Moreover, there were railway stations, bus stops, petrol stations and eateries nearby.

Reviewers praised the cleverly-designed rooms for making the most of the available space. There was also praise for the new look decor, free Wi-Fi and laminate flooring. Budget-minded visitors loved the low-cost room rates. The rooms were often described as well-cleaned, tidy and comfy.

Critics sometimes mentioned that they found the rooms and en suite bathrooms too cramped, particularly when fully occupied. Several reviewers mentioned there were areas of the hotel that could have done with redecoration. Meanwhile, slow speeds were sometimes reported on the free Wi-Fi network.

Stained mattresses and towels, insufficiently cleaned bathrooms and slow-draining water were among the maintenance and cleanliness issues that frustrated critics in certain rooms.

Light sleepers sometimes remarked that soundproofing measures required improvement as they were occasionally disturbed by nuisance noise from adjacent rooms. Lingering smoky smells also disappointed several travellers.
